Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76403, member: 636"] The Benin Republic situation got walked back after their government said the whole coup thing fell apart, and the guy running it bailed. Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga passed along word that Colonel Pascal Tigri ditched after trying to grab control through the national TV station, and some of his crew had already got picked up by security forces. Interior Minister Alassane Seidou went on air to confirm the military stayed loyal and shut down the takeover attempt without much trouble. He told people to chill out and go back to their regular routines since everything was under control again. [/QUOTE]
